The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VI.. Stop In!!!

[ezdays]

Good morning all, by now we should all take comfort in knowing that Christmas is just about a full year away. We had a nice quiet Christmas and look forward to the same for New Years Eve and Day as well... It's time for all the bowl games through sometime at the end of next week. We have the Fiesta Bowl. Right now, temps are in the 40's for a low and up into the 70's for a high which should be good for most folks coming in from out-of-town. We have the Baylor Bears playing the UFC Knights, and I'm not sure where "out-of-town" for any of them. Anyway, they play in the University of Phoenix stadium (which incidentally has no sports teams of any kind), on New Years Day. Arizona State University (which has many, many sports teams) plays on Monday in the Holiday Bowl. Oh yeah, I just noticed that we also have the "Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl" in the Sun Devil Stadium this coming Saturday...

"Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl"?????? Geeze, give me a break, these corporate sponsors may make the bowl organizes more money, but I really think it is demeaning to the sport. There's the:

• Chick-fil-a Bowl
  AutoZone Bowl
  Capitol One Bowl
  Outback Bowl
  Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl
  and the list goes on... and on....

Oh yeah, in case you were interested, the University of Phoenix is a world-wide mostly on-line for profit school and just has naming rights to the stadium where the Arizona Cardinals play. Yeah, you would think they had their own football team and all that.
